The Renaissance was a cultural movement that spanned roughly the 14th to the 17th century, beginning in Florence
in the Late Middle Ages and later spreading to the rest of Europe. The term is also used more loosely to refer to the
historic era, but since the changes of the Renaissance were not uniform across Europe, this is a general use of the
term. As a cultural movement, it encompassed a resurgence of learning based on classical sources, the
development of linear perspective in painting, and gradual but widespread educational reform.
